Whatever particular thing we are anxious about ... - Dhamma by Ajahn Jayasāro
Whatever particular thing we are anxious about or afraid of, the experience of anxiety or fear itself remains constant: a pattern of physical and mental phenomena arising and passing away in the present moment. Move your attention from the trigger of the emotion and the content of your thoughts, and look at the experience of the emotion. Examine it with an even, curious awareness. Be especially observant of the physical sensations. Before long the emotion will dissolve. After it has dissolved, observe the peace of cessation.
